An Oak Continuous Arm Windsor Chair by Colin Foxhall.

This chair is made of local Oak components with an English Burr Oak seat. The finish is oiled and waxed to show the natural colours of the wood to best effect. It is relatively unusual to use Oak for the seat of a Windsor chair, but with modern techniques it is possible to sculpt the seat shape in the fully seasoned (and very hard!) wood. You can see the burr on the front corner of the seat.

The continuous arm is one piece of wood steam bent to form a three dimensional curve. It produces a very comfortable and stylish chair.

Dining chairs without arms are also available to match this style.
